The virtue is I do not have to learn and relearn a new editor for each. And my custmizations such as F2 to justify each paragraph ragged right, are common for all. I even assign F keys for running pdftex or context on a file named book.tex (every book I work on is in a separate directory so all of them are called book.tex.) I have an F key for "acroread book.pdf" Just FYI. I doubt if I am the only one. -- John Culleton ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
